System.UInt64; it's the only way to be sure.

Nope: System.Numerics.BigInteger[^] is the one to go for!

Might be a little pedantic, but the uint64 is good for 45 billion years at the current rate, so I'd argue that would probably be sufficient.

Best to be on safe side though, eh?

No, no, facts like these are absolutely fascinating; I could quote them to my girfriend (if I had one).

If you did quote them, you likely would no longer have the girlfriend.

We should adopt the same unbiased voting system for Lounge posts :
Griff - 12 points (because he has to win)
Nagy - 10 points (because he threatened)
Dave - 8 points (because he gave me 10 last time)
...
Carlo - 1 point (because we all decided to ignore Italy again)
Rage - No point (because is France ever gonna bring something making sense again ?)

I detect a touch of bias there - but I'll break the rules for you! 
It's tempting to suggest that I should be entered as an act for Eurovision next year: with my negative singing abilities future events would be cancelled forthwith just in case I was entered again...

You'd be better than at least the 20 last French contestants.

Only if they cleared the hall in the first 20 seconds after starting to "sing"...

Why did they ever name a song contest Euro-VISION?
|
|
|
|

Because it had been organised by the European Broadcasting Union whose television network it was to be broadcast on was nicknamed Eurovision.

Do check out the Polish contribution, fast forward about one minute, and don't forget to shut the sound. The music is hideous.
